Thanks Pascal. I need to keep the system running (FOP will be embedded), and the font will be chosen/added by the user, so it looks like I'll have to create a new config in memory and load it for each request. Would it be worth forking a thread for each "run" of FOP and loading the config/fonts locally to that thread? The docs say that FOP may not be completely thread safe... are there any techniques I can follow to reduce issues?
